Irish to English translations [PRO]

Irish term or phrase:fenostol

Have no clue realy to what language this is from Maby Celtic or ancient Druid. It could be more than one word, not sure. It could also be PH in the beginning instead of F.

Explanation:but I did find as many as one google hit (for "fen 'nos tol")!

Dark Angel is the best show on television, well, it and Friends. If you disagree with this, go away. No one here wants to talk to you. No one here wants to see you. You are not welcome, and the freaks feel your presence.
I know that this is a hard time for all us Dark Angel folks, but we can only hope and prey that FOX will change their mind. OTHERWISE THEY CAN BURN IN HEAVEN! (IT's a me and Lesley thing, don't ask)
News is that the pilot of Firefly was a flop, so perhaps they'll realize that nothing can replace Dark Angel. I hope this is true because I don't think I could really live without my weekly dose of ass kicking.
My parents refuse to sign me up for Tae Kwon Doe so I'm really sad. They say I won't have time next year. (Damn High School) They say I'd have to give up something, but I don't want to give up anything...
The MB and Alec Shrine are up, and I think I may make a little page for each of the main cast members, so I'm working on it. Fen 'nos tol everyone, and enjoy yourself.

In England we have Fenlands, these translate to Heartlands hence "FEN", Nos is the Druid word for "OF", and finally a "TOL" is a round doughnut shaped stone often depicting the location of a Druid burial site "TOL" means stone.

To go into the Mionoan arguement, the Minoans where the original occupants of Crete around 3500 B.C., there civilisation was decimated 50 years after a huge volcano exploded some 75 miles away from Crete.

The Minoans (named after there king Minoa) where said to be the most advanced race on Earth at that time, and rumoured to be the Atlantans.

I have no other words than that to go on. It is said in a TV series (Dark Angel) by a group of ppl that are into the occult. Someone on a messageboard said that it could mean "heart of stone" but no one knows is that is true... All I can say is that Y say it like it's spelled... =)

Any more context? At least a few other words to help determine the language?
